I want to upgrade my stock brakes and I need opinions from yourselves.
What in your opinion are the best rotors and pads to buy for a 5.7l 05 300c.
Thanks in advance

I used R1 drilled and slotted with ceramic pads on mine and I love them.
You can check out Dave Zeckhausen at Zeckhausen Racing . He has been on this board for a long time, and has many loyal supporters, with no negative feedback that I can remember. I have some of his stoptech slotted rotors and centric posiquiets on my 5.7 and have no complaints.
I asked how fast you drive because I just left Germany after being there 6 years, and the stock brakes didn't hold up well at all on the Autobahn. Your style/speed when braking would be important to the tech folks where you ultimately purchase your brakes.
Check out Dave's vendor forum, or search the rest of the site for reviews..

its not that I drive fast(I do) but I am a very late braker and sometimes I find the "C" not as I would like her,I am also considering a caliper replacement too.Thanks for the link,I will go there now.
I have seen a complete brake kit from brembo,calipers,rotors,pads,lines etc but the fitment states SRT8,16 inch kit,will these fit my 05 5.7,I have 20" Startech wheels fitted,is the difference the clearance on the wheels or is the fitment completely different
Was wondering if anyone can recommend FACTORY replacement pads and rotors for my 06 300C SRT8 that don't create so much brake dust but still have good breaking performance. My dealer says he will replace the pads and rotors if I can come up with the pad and rotor part numbers. My current rotors are NOT slotted rotors. The brakes work great, but I can't deal with all the brake dust.
Thanks in advance for any help on this

The 16" SRT8 brake kit will not fit your 300.
The front caliper brackets are different.
A Brembo 15" kit will fit under your Startech wheels with no issues.
I will be selling my Brembo 15" kit within the next couple of months. Around 3000 miles worth of use. I can see very very little wear.
They will make a dramatic difference to your 300. The reason for selling is because am fitting even bigger brakes.
